Accelerant Holdings has announced the acquisition of Commonwealth Insurance Company of America (CICA), a Delaware domiciled admitted insurance carrier with licences in 48 states and the District of Columbia.

The company acquired CICA from Brit Group, a subsidiary of Fairfax Financial.

Accelerant plans to rename CICA as Accelerant National Insurance Company (ANIC) as the acquisition will enable the company to serve best-in-class members across both non-admitted and admitted market segments.

Accelerant CEO Jeff Radke said: “Completing the acquisition of CICA is an important development for our Company.

“We formed Accelerant with the goal of employing technology and a partnership-oriented approach to provide an enhanced user experience to our members. Adding an admitted platform to our offerings will enable us to write a broader array of programme business in the US market.”

Concurrently, Accelerant also rolled out its underwriting and analysis platform called Accelerant InSightFull into the US market.
